Black avionics screens after update

This works for a few seconds until it reverts back to dim or black.

That is the first thing I have tried.
IT DOES NOT WORK.

I’ve used that to bring the LFD back in the A320 (pilot seat), but the autopilot screens stay black. Not 100% necessary to have that on, but it does make life easier. Also, the ILS button doesn’t light up (although it still seems functional).

Mine stays on, but still have not started to taxi, but i cant see my autopilot display and there is nothing to increase thee brightness on that.

I just did a flight for about an hour in the Baron and the G1000 was fine.

No mods installed, screens went black in the a320 and no way to recover. Very frustrating.

The same here. No mods installed, King air middle screen blacked out and disabled AP

It seems to me that we have a very persistent gremlin touching the brightness knobs. I had it go black. Turned it back up. Changed something. It went back to black. Turned it back up. A few minutes later… rinse and repeat.

in the a320 the brightness knobs did nothing, just stuck on black.

Same for me with 787 black display, speed, altitude selector and hdg are black no way to dim. No mods installed. Sometimes if i reload display work then off.

I have had 2 scenarios similar to this.

  1. Loaded in with completely black screen(s) that wouldn’t turn on - in A320, not had chance to test others
  2. In-flight brightness knobs would get adjusted on their own (spooky!)

Had the same problem with 172 and 208. MFD goes black and requires a power recycle To get it to reboot. Both screens also go very dim due to the light adjustment switch going to minimum by themselves. I can turn the rotary switch back up but periodically It turns itself back down. The 208 autopilot won’t engage at all, either and various and assorted switches go off by themselves also. But that’s a story for another thread.
No mods installed at all

Same issue with the C152, whole radiostack in not lit, i see the swap buttons light up, but the displays stay dark…

P.S…

I tried some random switches in the C152, and after turning the Taxi lights on, the Radiostack display turned on as well…
Dunno bout other planes if turning on Taxi lighting helps for turning on the displays, for the C152 it did the trick…

i made even a cold start with A32NX + FTSIM sounds and everything worked , no issues. Weird bug…but they will fix it. No stutters anymore + G-sync works at last.

A320 display works but autopilot during landing not so much, 787 display avionics broken. No mods.
